Nick King's current top five (in no particular order, he says) are Florida, Georgetown, Memphis, Texas and North Carolina.

CCM has got to get busy on this kid.

If Stokes doesn't make the team then it'll be a shame. To be 18 and that talented is unbelievable.

I heard individual work outs consist of stealing various food items from street vendors and running like hell. Helps work on quickness.

Don't forget agility. It's tough to evade the randoms on the street and the cops. Walker was only able to last a few blocks. How far would Stokes get?

Stokes' would definately be at a disadvantage as far as evasion but it would take more than one or two cops to seperate him from his taco.

Nichols has been invited as well, could be good for our chances with Nichols if those 2 get to play together.

Considering one of Tennessee's main competitors for Nichols is the coach of the U18 team, I wouldn't think of that as a positive for Tennessee.

Any recruiting Donovan did towards Nichols would be an immediate violation, same cant be said for stokes.

The fact Nichols has said quote," I'd like to follow stokes to UT", he clearly likes stokes. The 2 talk alot and jarnell recently went to Arkansas to support him in an AAU tournament.

Of course it would be. But he would still be interacting with Donovan, whether or not Donovan is actually "recruiting" him. I don't see how that would benefit Tennessee.

I see the benefit of Nichols practicing, playing, dining, and possibly rooming with stokes for a few weeks being GREATER
than interacting with a coach once in awhile.

With these teams the assistants a lot of times do a lot of the coachinsodding practices, so it won't exclusively be Donovan. As i said, there's more benefit to UT with stokes and Nichols than there is to UF with Nichols and Donovan IMO.
